    What's the story

    Three days after an elderly couple was mowed down by a woman's car in Dwarka, the victims' family has raised suspicion over the identity of the driver.

    Shanti Swaroop Arora (79) and Anjana Arora (62) were run over on Sunday around 6:30 pm following which police arrested Deepakshi Choudhary (30). She was apprehended on charges of rash driving and causing death by negligence.

    Investigation

    Was Deepakshi really driving the car?

    However, there are suspicions over who was actually driving the car.

    A senior police officer said, "Deepakshi Choudhary accompanied the injured to Manipal hospital. She stated that she was driving the vehicle and committed the accident. She also produced her documents to the investigating officer. However, the victim's family raised doubts that her sister was driving the vehicle. Hence, the facts are being verified."
